Technical backgrounds

The complete website was written in PHP, HTML, CSS and Javascript according to the pattern and samples from Philipp Rieber's book
«Dynamische Webseiten in der Praxis».
On this occassion I have to kudos to Philipp Rieber for his well structured and easy to understand book.
And I also have to kudos to Philipp Rieber for the licence-free usage of the sample-code.
This website is hosted by the company Strato AG.
